Based on the Application Insights, the market is segmented into Power Plants, Residential Heating, Commercial Heating, and Combined Heat and Power (CHP).

• The commercial application segment is anticipated to show significant growth over the forecast period owing to increasing adoption of wood pellets for space heating in federal or municipal buildings, office buildings, educational facilities, and other commercial buildings. The attributes of wood pellets include convenience and ease of use, and bulk storage in less space is expected to augment its demand from the commercial heating segment.
• Clean combustion of wood pellets contributes to its application in pellet stoves and pellet fireplaces, thereby driving its demand in the power generation and heating applications. Favorable government policies regarding the use of efficient technologies such as pellet stoves instead of coal for reducing the emissions from domestic coal and wood heating devices are projected to drive the product demand in the residential heating application. In addition, the automation in pellet stoves, such as the automatic pellet feeding system is anticipated to drive the demand.
